Are you referring to resources that create dialogs in FB-based GUI applications? This is currently a topic of discussion over at the official FreeBASIC forum.

Hi,

I wrote a small tool in order to add icons and version information to exe files easily. [Screenshot] [Download]

Not a RAD, a .rsc file like they have in C, Pascal, and assembly...you know...
Code:
#include "Resource.h"

MY_ICON ICON "C:\Myicon.ico"

IDR_MYMENU MENU
BEGIN
    POPUP "&File..."
etc.
Like that?

It's a .rc file in Dev-C++.

Edit: It's typically used to create menus, change application icons, etc.

We mean the same thing but with different purposes. Smile I used RC/RES just in order to add icons and so on to exe files but that technic is able to add dialogs too.
There are some RAD interfaces for FB I think. On the one hand there's EzeeGUI and on the other hand there's wx-Widgets Designer (or so...)

You want to compile with a icon or something? You can do that in FB by:

<fbc> <Codename> C:\File\icon.rc

the .rc contianing the stuff to import the icon.... Adigun has a cool tut on it in QBasic Express (Can't remeber which one)...

If this isn't what you mean, forget this post....

Hi,

I know, but adding "version" resources by using RC files is IMO not quite comfortable... Smile My program above is just useful to save a bit work... Smile
